J.J. Cale Devil In Disguise lyrics

From the California shore to New York City
Beat don't never stop
You can hear it on the radio anywhere you go
It's steady as the rhythm of a clock

It cuts through the noise of the city life
It won't seem to go away
It's the devil in disguise I tell you no lies
My fingers do the walking everyday

Yonder come a young girl she wants to take a whirl
She thinks it's all a dream
She got rock n' roll way down in her soul
She wants to know where's the limousine

Get up honey let your mama sit down

You're too young anyway
Devil in disguise give her the prize
Then you can carry her away

When the road I travel starts to unravel
Ever which way it goes
Beat starts to press on my bullet proof vest
And my high turns out to be low

Give me my guitar, gonna go far
Let me see it let me hold it in my hand
I'm the devil in disguise, I tell you no lies
I'm playing in a rock n' roll band
